New ICS, how to make it work?

dirtbikr · #1 (**permalink**) 06-29-2008, 12:51 PM

Hey guys, just upgraded to the 6.1... Now it seems ICS is all messed up (like they found out there was something wrong with it, go figure

). There's no option for "Sprint" or "Phone as modem" so I'm assuming that it automatically connects as PAM because when I connect now it kicks me off and says that my powervision password and username are incorrect. Any way to go back to making them think the phone is just using data?
Thanks!

Very good suggestion. The program is very simple to use, and works very well. The major difference is that ICS is free though. PDANet is $34 after the trial period which, in my opinion, is quite expensive, especially if there is a free way of accomplishing the same thing.

For those of you who would like to give it a try, Here is the PDANet set up file. Just unzip, connect your phone to Activesync and run the exe. Enjoy!
